later for the morning news and cbs this morning. from the broadcast center in new york city, i'm elaine quijono. welcome to the "cbs overnight news." the white house says one of the worst bombings to hit iraq in more than a decade will only strengthen america's resolve to defeat isis. the terror group claimed responsibility for attacks that killed at least 120 people yesterday in the capital of baghdad. the battle against isis in iraq is also raising concerns about the future of afghanistan. over the weekend, republican senators, john mccain, and lindsay graham visited the country. they spoke to john dickerson from the american embassy in ka kabul. >> senator, i'll take to you, about overnight in iraq. what to this diverse set of

terrorist challenges should the u.s. policy response be? >> the u.s. response should have been a long time ago. not to withdraw everybody from iraq now the president is on the verge of doing the same thing here in afghanistan where things are not going well. and he is insisting on cutting the numbers in half while the situation deteriorates. what he should have done was to remain in iraq. while al qaeda, syria became isis. now we are seeing what we are seeing. we need to go to raqqa and kill them. you can do that with 10,000, of 100,000 person contingent using american capabilities. go take them out of raqqa where they're now basing most of these, or at least some of these attacks.

and then -- get into the long ideological struggle to defeat this metastasizing evil that its afflicting all of the middle east and parts of the world. >> senator graham, secretary of state, john kerry reiterated this week he thinks the uptick in violence is related to the pressure that is being put on isis. he says, a sign that they're being put into a corner do. you buy that? >> well, you know, we had made progress on the ground in iraq and syria. there is no strategy to replace assad. if assad stays in power, and you can't stabilize iraq. the one thing i want people to know if you forget about afghanistan, you do so at your own peril. 9/11 originated. the president will make the most

consequence shall decision of his presidency in a long time about troop levels. mr. president, this time around, accept sound military advice. lead the 9,800, conditions based. let the next president. who he or she may be. deal with afghanistan. please do not cut the troop levels in half. if you do afghanistan is going to become iraq. very quickly. >> have rules of engagement that we can utilize the full use of american military power. >> senator mccain, on that afghanistan question, the situation there, by some reports, is quite dire. unity government is in, a very shaky state. for an american public that has seen 15 or more years in afghanistan. leaving the troops there may feel like, throwing good after bad. >> well then that means we have forgotten the lesson of 9/11. that is that -- of course, if we leave and these forces take over. then there will be further attacks on the united states of america.

>> by the way, there is going to be further attacks on the united states of america as long as they have a base in syria. then they will have a base in afghanistan. p>> i want to ask about turkey. lot of analysts will say, turkey was turning a blind eye to isis. a lot of fighters want through. almost off all them were going through turkey. turkey was an enabler. one person put it where now do you think turkey is in the fight against isis. >> give the administration credit for getting turkey on board. this attack you saw in turkey. a symptom of greater problem. turkey was antagonistic towards israel. now a new relationship. turkey and israel. that is a good sign. i can only tell you that in

afghanistan turkey coming into the fight will help in syria and iraq. we don't have strategy to destroy isil. the next president will do with that. what we are doing is buying time. president obama passing this to the next president. hope to good we don't get hit in the united states from an attack planned in syria like you saw in a -- in turkey. i'm afraid that is going to happen if we don't speed up the demise of isil. >> senator mccain, president graham mentioned the next president. talked about complex issues. would donald trump or hillary clinton be better in handling the issues? >> i don't think either one of them have displayed what i think is the necessary strategy and outlook that planning, that, and reliance on our military leaders that will be necessary to succeed. i help that whichever one is in president. will call in david petraeus and

robert ford and ryan crockers and those individuals, both militarily and state department. diplomats, succeeded before the president gave it all away. know what we need to do to defeat this, defeat this threat both militarily and diplomatically and other ways. either one of them should call them in and do what they recommend. and that way, we can still succeed. because america is still the strongest nation on earth. >> if i may add, john. >> let me just follow-up. >> let me add, john. i think both clinton. senator mccain, you mentioned advisers there. i notice a number of your add is miers, kissinger, armitage, have all had serious questions about trump or openly against him. and i wondered, why you're supporting donald trump given your reservations and

reservations of the people you trust? >> well, as i have said i would support the nominee of the party. i have strong agreements. we have just been through several of them. and that's my position. senator graham, as a final thing. would you add what you were planning to before the time delay? >> i think clinton and trump would have a conditions based withdrawal in afghanistan when it kmz to syria when trump says it is okay for assad to stay. that tells me he has no idea what that means for the region. israel is in great threat from iran. iran is arming hezbollah with precision missiles. trip from israel was very unnerving to say the least. so the syrian civil war is having an effect throughout the region. mr. trump, when you said assad should stay, you need to rethink that. secretary clinton wants a no-fly zone in syria, a great step in the right direction. >> to watch more go to cbsnews.com. and click on face the nation. we'll be right back.
